Project Site:

• The San Gorgonio Pass, about 18 miles west of Palm Springs, is one of the most established wind energy areas in the U.S. and is home to hundreds of turbines that have been installed since the 1980s.
• Average wind speed of 19.7 mph which relates to an average capacity factor of over 35%.

Turbines:

• 111 Mitsubishi MWT-600 wind turbines.
• The turbines are mounted on 50- and 60-meter tubular towers.

Output:

• The 111-turbine Mountain View Wind Project generates enough energy to serve more than 40,000 homes in California.
